MI congresswoman backs Perry

Rep. Candice Miller, the Michigan congresswoman who was a major early endorser of Rudy Giuliani in 2007, is backing Rick Perry, his campaign announced today.

The key from Miller's statement was this: "Lots of candidates talk about job creation, but no one has delivered like Rick Perry. Since Rick Perry became governor, Texas has gained more than one million jobs – a stark contrast to the 2.4 million jobs America has lost on President Obama’s watch. After careful consideration I have determined that Gov. Rick Perry is the leader we need to get Michigan and America working again.”
